And so sets up the backstory for doa6 where Honoka's grandma becomes a playable character where she'll have to defeat Tina Armstrong who's since become governor and her vice governor Lisa Hamilton.
Marie sought revenge on Tina for killing her best friend & decided to get help from Honoka’s estranged half sister Ayane in the art of assassination, upon meeting her Ayane said “who the fuck are you no I won’t help you, thanks to you I’m not getting any screentime in 6”
